Inspiration:

I’m inspired by the diversity of people, cultures, colors, patterns, and textures. Growing up in a multicultural world, I’ve always been fascinated by how clothing can tell a story and express emotion. I’m drawn to the little details—the way a color or texture can transform a character—and I love using fashion to celebrate individuality and connect with people on a deeper level.

Career High:

Probably making the advert for Marie Curie. Even though it’s incredibly sad, Shannon wanted to show the softness in death. She gave me the freedom to create some interesting and beautiful characters.
